i have them somewhere a bit dog eared now though.
i did notice they have a mini of slaine now , and i am sure their was one of the horned god somewhere not official but still great, inf anyone knows what i am talking about and can provide a link i would be most happy.
@Monkey wow , sprog six , the mighty tharg would be proud . I Have a aching to make tank girl form one of those escher bad girls. ..since you did transmetropolitork
@Weety great pic , the only slaine i read was the graphic novels , he wasn't in 2000AD when i was reading it. great art though.
Weety we demand you make a goliath into slain as tribute to the earth goddess Danu!

Yeah, Bisley's art is wonderful, but I still have a soft spot for Glenn Fabry's Slaine, from the original run, classic stuff, tried bidding on a few Fabry originals a few years back when I was grabbing original comic art, but they always went far out of my price range  Had to make do with Ace Garp and The Mean Team instead
I always thought the GW possessed model from Mordheim would make a good base for a warped Slaine, and there was a potential Slough Feg too, back when they did the Albion supplement.

Thanks to this thread, I've really started looking into the older figs. I put in a bid on ebay for an old GW "Space Skeleton." It's this cool looking skeleton in the tattered remains of a space suit. If I win, and weety doesn't bid on it, I'll put up pics.

I shouldn't worry about me outbidding you Valhalla, I have a ban on frivolous shopping till december. Very cool choice of mini though - I will get one one day. Undead spacemen are always fun.
I am slowly working through a backlog of minis which haven't been painted or photographed yet - This lot just got undercoated - which implies they might get painted at some point - they are all classics

I think its the trench-coat, bald head and sunglasses combo - a bit like Morpheus out of the matrix. They can look a bit samey though - I might give one a GS mohawk/Afro or sumthink like that

The delaque are so sought after because they were a good gang in necromunda plus they were the best choice for genestealer cultists. And they are just down right cool. I had almost 100 of them around 2 yrs ago.

Indeed I thnk they make excellent genestealer cultists - so far I've been painting them as chaos cultists but maybe I will do a sort of joint genestealer / slaneesh cult (you could do that back in the day).
I might get some painting done today as I am very ill and can't do anything else. I'm allergic to binge drinking... bummer

I won it! In fact, I was the only person who actually bid on it. It was about... 12 pounds? In dollars, it came to $20.83.
Hopefully it won't take too long to ship from the good old UK.

Could have been worse - to get it cheaper I think you would have had to wait for a while; every now and again someone posts a rare mini cheap and if the photo is bad or its smothered in thick paint then you can win it cheaper.

I need to learn how to paint like that before I tackle the Space Skeleton. (I can't help but capitalize his name.) I'm okay, but no that good.
I plan on using him as a servitor in my IG army.

Thanks! My advice is to have lots of different coloured washes and experiment with using them in layers over base colours. Layering washes then highlights, then more washes.

Bugalug looks very nice, knew you'd do him justice. Like the metal-work around the face, and good eye for colour as always.
That doesn't sound too bad valhalla, could have been a bit more.
